The Notification History screen allows you to review all email correspondence that has been sent out of your intelligentcontract account. The screen will display all automatic system generated emails (such as forgotten passwords) and account created emails (such as Alerts, Tasks and Approval Requests).
Sometimes, you may need to check when and to who a specific email has been sent. This screen will allow you to view all emails; using filters, you can identify the required email record.
Navigate to: Configuration => Users => Notification History

As the email preview contains live links and buttons, some email Previews will be restricted. These will be emails that contain sensitive information such as Administrator and Key User password reset links, so they cannot be accessed by unauthorized users.
Notification Bounces
If for any reason an email notification is bounced the 'Communication Enabled' tick box against the Person record is automatically set to 'No' to prevent any further bounces - this must be set back to 'Yes' once the bounce issue has been resolved so they can continue to receive intelligentcontract email notifications.
